Prineville News: Several of onr- friends
and neighbors residing on the west side of
fhe Deschutes riyer intend to leave the1
country thia summer or next fall. Most of
thoae who are going away were beavy stock
losers laat winter, and they are discouraged.
While we regret to lose a tew of our old-
time, unfortunate . citizens, we are some
what consoled by the fact that not less
than nine well-to-do families from webfoot
same over tbe mountains recently on a hunt
for homes in Crook county, some persona
are too easily discouraged anyway. The
late arrival of strangers wjll qo well in
picking up left fortunes At any rats
everything ia in their favor to do so, and we
believe tbey will reap tbe ricb harvest aown
for them by those who teel so much dis
couraged over losses that are as far apart as
tbey are improbable.

His insicht is profound, his expression
striking and even marvelous. For the
present he has Inished bis readings of
Shakespeare to Portland, though he may
be prevailed on to give another series
within a short time, after engagements at
the north shall have been fulfilled. To-
night he will read Dicken's "Christmas

with intent to commit murder on the per
son of a Mr. Anderson, at Nampa on the
13th of June last. His honor beld that a

was strong probability that the defendant
was the one who committed it, and there

Three freight cars were burned last -night
in the wreck near Mosier, one loaded with
merchandise, one witb heayy machinery and

saw tbe bridge in time to jump and escape
nninjured. It was quite dim, and the
smoke of the burning bridge could scarcely
be discerned. If the accident had occurred
to a train late at night undoubtedly there
would have been fatalities - to record. Mr.
Geo. Lang was engineer, but we could not
learn the name of the fireman. It is ex
pected the transfer will be made by boat
to-morrow morning, as there is not much
likelihood ot tbe bridge bung ccmoleted to
day. The west-bound passenger trains are
still in the city.

Tenants and Landlords in Ireland.
Bight Hon. Arthur J. Balfour, in North American
Heview for July.
I come now to the third of Mr. Parnell's
objections, which is, perhaps, the most
singular of all. He objects, it appears,
to any land-purchase scheme being passed
while Ireland is under "coercion"; on the
grounds that no tenant can under such
circumstances contract freely with his
landlord as to the terms of sale. In order
to support so stai-tling a thesis he is ob
liged to misrepresent the provisions of the
Coercion Act, which, be states most cr-
roneously, are to render illegal all com
bination on the part of Ibe tenants; to in-
vent imaginary prosecutions of Nation
alist members of parliament, Mr. Cox, Mr.
Patrick O'Brien and others, lor advising
tenants not to give more than a certain
amount for their holdings; to ignore the
fact that the clauses in the so-called Coer
cion Act dealing with criminal conspiracy
are in operation oyer but a sma'l part of
Ireland; and that he himself, when, dur
ing Mr. Gladstone's government, all Ire
land was under coercion, did not' consider
that he was on that account precluded
iruiu warniiy supporting in parliament a
resolution in lavor of land-purchase
brought forward by two members of the
present Conservative cabinet. But, in
truth, to any one who knows the condi
tion 01 ireiana auring tne last ten years
there is an absurdity far beyond, the
necessity for formal refutation in suppos.
mg that the' tenants are at any disadvan.
tage in making bargains with their land.
lords. For every act of injustice, dishon.
esty, harshness, or oppression committed
during that period by a landlord toward
a tenant, it would be possible to find a
hundred committed "by tenants towards
their landlord cu tqwardg each o'her.
And if proof were required that, at all
events, the tenants who have most experi
ence and knowledge of the working of
the ourchase acts do not share Mr. Par
nell's view, it may be "sufficient to point
out that in the Protestant parts of Ulster,
Where by fur the largest relative number
of sales have taken place, where no illegal
combinations exist, and where, therefore,
11 luese oe a protection against landlord
exaction, the tenants are specially de
fenceless, the farmers have no complaint
to make against the bill except that it is
not made compulsory and universal.

The Seven Deyils Earthquake.
A great deal has been said in the papers
the past few weeks regarding an earthquake
in the Seven Devil country, in Idaho. The
proprietor ot the Statesman, who has re
cently returned from an extended prospect
ing trip to that country, thiows the follow
ing light npon the subject: He says that
he and Mr. J. B. Evans, who, by the way,
is a cousin of Senator Allen, and who felt
the so-called earthquake, were coming
down the high mountains from tbe mines
and in order to make a cut-off, sent their
riding horses ahead with the pack animals
and put right down the mountain to reach
Garnet creek. Upon arriving there their
passage was obstructed by an immense
mass of anow and trees, which was nothing
more than a tremendous ayalanche, which
filled the gnlcb for over two miles, and
without a doubt caused the trembling of
the earth which was felt for five miles each
wy from the spot where it occurred. Mr.
Parker describes tbe scene as terriffic and
well worth seeing, for tbe snow and trees
were piled np for forty or fifty feet. The
trees were torn up and swept down bodily
for a long distance, and bad there been any
bouses there they must have been destroyed
with all their occupants, for nothing could
have saved them. It ended about a mile
from what is known as the "old camp,"
where are situated several houses and some
fine copper mines. '

children teething, is the prescription of
one of the best female nurses and physi
cians in the United States, and has been

its value is incalculable. It relieves the
child from pain, cures dysentary and diarrhoea,-griping

Lincoln in a Hospital.
We never hear anything of Abraham
Lincoln, but what it is always something
good. In a recebt conversation with an
old Union soldier he told ns tbe following
fresh story, and he did it like this.
I bad been in the Fiulev Hospital
several months, said the soldier. One
day, in May 1863, President Lincoln end
Secretary Chase walked into the ward
where I was lying. You don't know how
much good it did us to see them, one gets
so tired looking at the nnrse and at all
the lor-g rows of cots. It is bard to lay
on a cot day alter day, and hear tbe boys
moan, as tneir lite ebbs away. Home
rooming you wake up and sec an empty
cot near vou.
"Number 0 is gone?" you say to tbe
nurse.
"Yes, be went at three this morning.
poor iellowl but Us better lor bim, '
sbe answers, in a sympathizing voice.
We boys, therefore, took solid comfort
in looking at Mr. Lincoln's face that after
noon, and in hearing him talk. He didn't
say much to me tbat day, but it was good
to hear him say anything, his words were
so gentle and kind. And then be was as
thoughtful as a mother: he knew just
what to say.
I had been very sick. Yes, that sleeve s
empty. I left tbe arm at Chattanooga.
As I was saying, he only spoke a few
words to me, and passed on to number
36. -
- A Vermont boy, a mere lad, not over
18, was on it. He bad been wounded
mortally and was near his end.' Mr. Lin
coln stopped at the cot, and taking the
thin, white hand said, in a tone that was
as tender as a mother's:
'My poor boy, what can I do for you?"
With a beseeching look, the little fel
low turned bis eyes op at the homely,
kindly face, and asked, "Won't you write
to my mother for me?"
"That I will," aosweied the president,
and calling for a pen, ink and paper, be
seated himself by tbe side of the cut. It
was a long letter be wrole, at least three
pages of commercial note, and when it
was finished, the president rose, saying:
I will mail this as soon as get back
to my office. Now is there anything else
I can do for vou?'
In some way the boy had eome to know
that it was the president. And so, look
ins at him in the most appealing sort of
a way he asked: .
"Won't you stay with m'e till it's all
over? It won't be long, and I do want to
bold on to your hand !"
Tbi9 was too mucb for the great-hearted
president to resist. Tbe tears carne to, bis
epts, and be sat down by him and took
bold of his band. Tbe little fellow did
not move nor speak a word. This was
soma time before four o'clock, and it was
long alter six tbat tbe end came.
But tbe president sat there as if he bad
been the boy' father. When the end
came he bent over agd folded tbe thin
bands over the breast, and then looked so
sorrowfully at the pale, thin face. Tbe
tears streamed dawn bis cheeks unheeded.
We all cried, ttm.

The French and German Armies..
The latest comparison between the
armies of France and Germany places tbe
former .ahead numerically, the latter is
preparing to close the gap with tbe aid
of the recent law. France on a piece
footing has 530,548 men, and the law of
five years seivice recently enacted per
mits her to add GOO.OOQ men to her terri
torial army. Other reforms increase tbe
annual contingent by 00,000 men, and
this brings it up to 220,000. By count
ing tbe twenty. five contingents under tbe
law witb their total losses, which are es
timated at one-quarter, tbe effective force
for mobilisation amounts to 4,183,000.
